On October 20, 2022, The Flowr Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, “Flowr”) were granted protection pursuant to an order, as amended, (the “Initial Order”) issued under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”) by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (the “Court”) and Ernst & Young Inc. (“EY”) was appointed Monitor. On October 28, 2022, the Court issued an order (the “SISP Order”) authorizing and directing Flowr to undertake a sale and investment solicitation process (the “SISP”).

Flowr is a licensed producer of cannabis in accordance with the Cannabis Act and the Cannabis Regulations that is licensed to cultivate, produce, distribute, and sell dried cannabis flower, pre-rolled cannabis and other cannabis products. Flowr currently supplies the Canadian markets, and has two international supply agreements, one for the EU and one for Israel, to support its vision for the future growth of the cannabis industry.

All qualified interested parties will be provided with an opportunity to participate in the SISP. The SISP is intended to solicit interest in an acquisition or refinancing of Flowr’s business, or a sale of the assets and/or the business of Flowr on a going concern basis, which may include, among other things, a merger, reorganization, recapitalization, primary equity issuance or other similar transaction.

On November 1, 2022, Flowr executed a stalking horse purchase agreement to sell the shares of The Flowr Group (Okanagan) Inc. for $3,888,888.88 plus an amount reasonably necessary to fund the cash requirements of Flowr to close the transactions, if any, plus the assumption of certain liabilities, as may be adjusted in accordance with its terms. The stalking horse purchase agreement is subject to approval of the Court in order for it to be accepted as the stalking horse bid under the SISP. If approved, the stalking horse purchase agreement ensures that the business of Flowr will emerge from its CCAA proceedings as a going concern.

The deadline to submit a binding offer is set for December 2, 2022 (Eastern Time).
